The Cataclysm raged and ended the first season of The Cycle: Frontier with a bang. After the mighty storm has swept all items – cosmetic items and the in-game currency Aurum excluded – out of the inventories of the prospectors, it's time for everyone: a fresh start! Season 2 of Yager's extraction shooter, subtitled The Depths of Tharis Island, features, among other things, a third game map with all-new challenges.
The Depths of Tharis Island
Season 2 is the best starting point for newcomers and veterans alike. Thanks to the wipe, all players start with the same requirements and can experience the new faction campaigns and their diverse missions together. These new campaigns also bring Prospectors to Tharis Island for the first time, The Cycle: Frontier's new map and greatest challenge of the moment, far from the known.
Each faction on Fortuna III has their own reasons for sending players to the new island. This houses abandoned faction bases, lush canyons, strange artifacts and a huge, previously unexplored and widely branched cave system. At the same time, these caves are completely different from any previously known map of The Cycle: Frontier. While the previous areas have been more focused on outdoor areas, Tharis Island focuses on the underground systems. There, players will find ancient tech that enables a new in-match activity related to upgrading gear and specializing in certain skills.
Another change to The Cycle: Frontier is the improvements to the anti-cheat system. Yager's goal is to significantly reduce cheating so all Prospectors have a better time on Fortuna III.
Other improvements in Season 2 include in-game Quality of Life changes as well as new loot, cosmetic items and a brand new Fortuna Pass with 100 levels full of skins, emotes, charms, Aurum currency and a mysterious lottery ticket. An overview of the patch notes can be found here.
On September 29th at 19pm PDT, Yager's Adam Cleaver will be going live on the official Twitch Channel with some guests from the development team to share the news and mysteries of Season 2. They also give an outlook on the future of The Cycle: Frontier after Season 2.
